Almost never charge per song, here it's hourly rates plus parts.

We do give quotes which are pretty firm based on the number of tracks and total length of the album, as after a while you pretty much figure out about how much time you need per track to get things jumping. Rarely does that change, although we do include a disclaimer that prices are hourly and may vary depending on what needs to be done.

Those projects (that go over budget) represent only around 10% of all the stuff we do, almost everything stays within our quote. We generally do revisions for free (i.e. EQ, levels) as long as they're not remixed tracks that need to be approached from scratch (i.e. because the band/engineer screwed up).

Once in a blue moon we'll give a fixed rate offer on a project, in most cases we end up regretting it.

Cheers,
Thor
